BTW. I would like to point out that there is no reason to use XML inside the 
key. It might make more sense to have the data inside a key be the most 
trivially serializable set of data for the specific language you are developing 
in. (For example JSON, or Java Properties...) By using XML here, you are forcing 
updates to the NMWG objects to support these things - and this really is an 
implementation specific feature.
